LSIL PAP smear Posted: 04-03-08 18:59pm
So I went to my doctors appointment to get
the results of my pap smear, and they said
it was abnormal. It came back for LSIL
(low-grade squamous intraepithelial
lesion). It is a precancerous condition of
the cervix. 2-3% of all Pap tests result
in a diagnosis of LSIL. There is 5 classes
of it.
Class I- Normal
Class II- Mild dysplasia
Class III- Moderate dysplasia
Class IV- Severe dyslasia
Class V- Cancer of the cervx.
Luckily, I'm only in class II. My doctor
said it could of been that I had had a
yeast infection, and it might of triggered
the test. They gave me a prescription for
a vaginal cream called clindesse. Has this
happened to anyone else?
Edit* I got to hear the baby's heartbeat,
and see it move around. My doctor said "It
looks like it's trying to ride a bike"

I haven't been through this, but I just
wanted to tell you how sorry I am you're
having to go through it. Stuff like that is
so scary. I'm sure you'll be just fine,
they can probably fix it right up for you.
And YAY for seeing your baby!! Congrats!!

HPV- human papoloma virus [spelling??]
its the number 1 cause of cervical
cancer.. that is why they have a
vaccination for it now [[hey speaking of
that i need my 2nd shot of that]] my
sister has it... it can cause a few
complications ... but it is a sexually
transmited disease that sometimes is
completely invisible as in my sisters
case. she had no clue she had it untill
she got tested... the worst part is she
got it because , well she was with her
husband since they were 15 ... but when
they were 22 they got engaged... well
since they have ONLY dated eachother they
had some rough times and decided they
needed to date other people, so they broke
off the engagement... he slept with a few
girls and got hpv, then gave it to my
sister when they got back together... she
was quite p!ssed

i found out i had an LSIL when i was 17 my
docter sent me to a specialist and they
burned off the cancerous cells but now im
19 and i get gardasil i wish i would've
known about it back then back in october i
found out i was pregnant and i had a
miscarriage 3 days later i was only 4
weeks but me and my bf didnt know
y......yesterday i went for a pap and my
doctor told me if the LSIL came back i
could become infertile so my question to
anyone who might kno the answer is can u
get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy
when you have an LSIL and is it hard to
get pregnant? because my bf and i have
been trying for months and nothing is
happening

Low grade cell changes on your cervix will
not make you infertile. In fact, your
miscarriage was not due to LSIL. Early
miscarriages are most often because of
chromosomal abnormalities at a microscopic
cellular level. There would have been
nothing you could have done to prevent
that. I'm sorry.
You do not still have LSIL because it was
burned off your cervix. This shouldn't
have anything to do with your pregnancy or
your ability to get pregnant.
thanx but i also have hpv which the doctor
didnt explain clearly enough to me what it
was until recently she told me it doesnt
go away but i thought it went with the
LSIL.....so since i get gardasil now what
does it protect me from since i already
have hpv?

Gardasil protects you from cervical cancer
(I'm pretty sure). My doctor advised me to
get it BECAUSE I have HPV.
